Thread: Printing to shared Samsung 1640 - need to open TCP port 631
hi guys,
have 2 machines each running ubuntu 11.10.
both machines on wi-fi network.
machine has samsung ml-1640 attached via usb.
have set share.
machine b can discover printer unable connect it.
print server troubleshooter takes forever run comes notice says "unable connect server make sure tcp port 631 open"
i've put machine dmz on router , same error. makes me think it's not router blocking connection, firewall rule on machine a.
long time ago seem remember issuing terminal command closed ports think reason can't connect printer.
know how can change allow tcp port 631 open?
update: found command after searching bit more:
i can print now.code:sudo ufw allow <port number>
